ABOUT THIS RELEASE
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying<\/em><\/strong> (1967) is writer-director David Swift\u2019s movie adaptation of the award-winning Broadway musical, featuring score and original choreography by a pair of legends: Frank Loesser and Bob Fosse. Gleefully reprising their Broadway roles as a scary-ambitious window cleaner and a befuddled company president are Robert Morse and Rudy Vallee, joined here by Michele Lee, Anthony Teague, and Maureen Arthur in an entertainingly vicious take on big business.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying<\/em><\/strong> comes to Blu-ray courtesy of Twilight Time, presented in its original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer. For the most part this is a nice looking picture, colors are generally vibrant and it was a by and large clean transfer with only minor white specs, but nothing overly distracting.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Overall, Murphy\u2019s Law<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t Charles Bronson at his best and is more memorable for the young Kathleen Wilhoite and her plethora of lovely insults which makes this so hilarious and the story at least is serviceable with a great and utterly scary villainous. The Blu-ray released by Twilight Time has a so-so video, passable audio and a commentary worth listening to.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
